Penelope Blackberry Old Fashioned is a ready-to-drink cocktail from Penelope Bourbon that combines straight bourbon whiskey and straight rye whiskey with aromatic bitters and a rich blackberry infusion, bottled at 76 proof (38% ABV). This pre-mixed take on the classic Old Fashioned delivers brown sugar sweetness, warm baking spice, and a fruit-forward twist without any measuring, muddling, or mixing required.
Penelope Bourbon has built its reputation on thoughtfully blended, small-batch whiskeys that balance tradition with a modern sensibility, and this RTD lineup extends that same philosophy into the cocktail glass. Rather than cutting corners, Penelope uses real straight bourbon and rye as the backbone, then layers in genuine blackberry flavor for a cocktail that tastes like it came from behind a well-stocked bar—not a factory line.
